The latest Star Citizen patch has released the long-awaited Engineering update!
Knowing your tools is half the battle for any engineer, whether you’re maintaining a ship under calm conditions or responding to an emergency mid-operation. A well-prepared engineer understands not only what tools to carry, but also how and when to use them effectively. Mastery of these essentials ensures faster response times, reduced downtime, and a safer environment for everyone aboard.
Fire extinguishers are among the most critical tools in an engineer’s arsenal. Fires can spread rapidly and cause catastrophic damage if left unchecked, making quick access and decisive action essential. After use, extinguishers should always be replenished and returned to their designated slots so they’re ready for the next emergency. Consistent upkeep of safety equipment is a hallmark of a disciplined engineer.
Fuses and repair tools round out the core toolkit. Carrying spare fuses in your backpack allows for swift replacement of damaged systems, keeping the ship operating at peak efficiency.
Paired with a multitool and the Cambio-Lite SRT, engineers can reliably perform component repairs and hull maintenance on the fly. Together, these tools form the foundation of effective engineering and ensure you’re always ready to keep things running smoothly.
